Unity LOD system

News & General Discussion

Hi ,

Can any one let me know if the built in LOD system in unity auto generates the lod meshes, or do i have to create the simplified meshes myself?

I have searched high and low and cant find the answer.

Thanks

Daniel

Unity’s LOD system does not auto-generate the LOD meshes for now. You’ll need to create them yourself, or use a service like Simplygon Cloud to do it.

It’d be pretty amazing if the simplygon API was built into Unity, perhaps as an extra cost. The convenience of it all, but more importantly, automating the process (ie thousands of trees → 1 mesh with culling group distance band).

Is there any AS pack that can autogenerate LOD meshes itself? So you won’t have to upload models anywhere and everything would be generated in editor? Doesn’t matter if it comes with it’s own LOD system or not as LOD is one of these things that are easy to write on your own.
